Perfect combination of sexy and sophisticated
I wore this for a night out in Vegas, and it was absolutely perfect. I'm 5'7", 150 pounds, 34DD and most of my weight is in the hips and thighs. I usually wear a size 6, but I was a little nervous about going with the 6R. It was difficult to zip, but not because of the fit. The location of the zipper and thick material in some spots just made it a challenge. Eventually I got it and was able to go to the restroom alone, which is always a good thing. Overall, I LOVE this outfit. If I weren't dieting and expecting to drop a few inches in the next few months, I absolutely would have bought it!

Love this dress!
This dress is adorable. It is low-cut, so I chose to wear a tight black tank top underneath. I absolutely loved the color, and it just looked perfect for my meeting. I did notice the material was a little thin - not crazy, cheap thin - but it wasn't a super thick fabric. That was actually perfect for me as it was very sunny and hot where I was.

Great for someone who carries weight in the waist. Also, this would be a gorgeous maternity jacket/
So the blazer is very cute. I love the back, and it looks great with a nice work dress. My only concern was the front as the fit was quite loose. And I suppose it would have to be loose with the open back. I should have thought of that. I honestly think this jacket would be great if I carried my weight in the waist. Alas, I do not and that is not my style - so it didn't work for me. When I am pregnant, though, I am running to the store to try to buy this jacket. It would be absolutely perfect for a baby bump! That's the kind of loose I'm talking about.

Runs large, order one size down.
I am normally a size 4 or 6 - depending on how well I behaved in the month prior. For this event, I was definitely in 6 territory. I read the reviews about this running big, so I ordered a 2 because RTR didn't have a 4 available. It was very tight, but I pulled it off. I would have definitely done well with the 4. Long story short, one size down and you'll be all set.

I absolutely adored this dress. It was sexy without being trashy and showing off too much cleavage.
I was a solid size 4 when I wore this dress, but I read the reviews about this running small. I ordered a size 6L & 8R. The 8R was too big, and the 6 fit just right - but it was super long. I am 5'7" and wore 4 inch heels. I had to hold the dress to keep it from dragging on the ground. Unless you are 5'10", I can't see a reason to opt for a long version of this dress. I am a 34 DD and wore this without a bra. No problem at all. It didn't show a lot of cleavage, which was great because this was an official affair. I carry my weight in my hips/thighs so this dress was perfect for me. The midsection has zero give whatsoever. So, if you carry most of your weight in the waist, I would play it safe and request a size up. Ultimately, I think this dress is perfect for someone with a larger bust, smaller waist, and any hip/thigh size. Remember, order one size up and only ask for long if you want it VERY long.
